Guys:

I want to generate a report from sql plus and the output should be in MS excel format.

spool c:/output.xls;
select * from emp;
spool off;

will give me an excel file. But the format is not delimited. Anyone has an idea on how to achieve this so when the user opens the file, it's properly seperated by the fields in excel?
